Happy July 4th!!!

We had a great day here in Richmond to celebrate the 4th. We started out eating egg sandwiches and (Clint and Melissa) enjoying coffee on our screened in porch. At 8:30am we headed over to Lewis Ginter Botanical Gardens. It was free admission for July 4th and we bee-lined to the Children's Garden so the kids could play in the water gardens, the sand box and the giant tree fort. Our neighbors, the O'Mara's, went too. It was so much fun. Afterwards, we enjoyed a bite to eat at Chick-Fil-A and made it home in time for naps!
After naps, we all shared some popcorn and patriotic popsicles that we made last night.
And then we enjoyed several hours in our backyard with our new inflatable pool! It kept us cool in the 100F heat!
Happy Independence day everyone!!
